Tonight’s the night! The second season of Luther, the critically acclaimed psychological crime drama starring one Idris Elba, premieres at 10PM, on BBC America for stateside audiences, when its new so-called Dramaville hour, to be hosted by Idris, debuts.

Oh, and by the way, a 3rd season of Luther has been ordered, if you haven’t already heard.

Season 2 reportedly outperformed season 1 (in the UK, where it aired earlier this year), attracting over 5 million viewers, and was well received by critics.

And in anticipation of tonight’s debut, earlier today, NPR interviewed Idris, not only about the series, but they also spoke The Wire (specifically how he got the role, taking advice from his agent), Idris’ dream role (Nelson Mandela, which surprised me), and the rumors that he might one day play James Bond (“I’d do it, but I don’t want to be called the black James Bond“).

He also kind of addressed something that’s frequently debated around here, also known as “the burden of representation,” stating, “I didn’t come to America to play “black roles,” I came to play roles.“

“Shades of Blue” is over, but Lopez’s “World of Dance” continues as a big hit for NBC. As she winds down three years of both her drama series and her Vegas residency, here’s what’s next for the superstar.
